Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

I can't even.

From my flist, this great tidbit:

English scholar Christopher Frayling, author of an epic biography of Sergio Leone and recent recipient of a knighthood. For his knightly crest, he chose the Latin motto:

Perge, Scelus, Mihi Diem Perficias

The official translation of the motto from the College of Heralds reads as follows:

Proceed, varlet, and let the day be rendered perfect for my benefit.

But the intended rendition would instead be:

Go ahead, punk, make my day.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

They didn't really show anything scandalous, what with it being network TV and all. But what they were able to show looked pretty good.

Aw, but you haven't really lived until Anne McCaffrey's tried to run you over with her motorized cart!

If I only had a brain...

I just got the SFWA newsletter, and it mentioned that McCaffrey has "turned the Pern franchise over to her son."

Ew.

Trust my rage

(Thanks for the heads-up about the repeat broadcast of that, by the way.)

Thanks from me too.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I am very glad to spread the Dempsey-ogling opportunities.

Except to msbelle.

Your fists aren't that wee that they can't hit the shift key, are they?
